However, prison sentences of up to two years are almost always suspended in Spain for those who have no previous convictions. The oral hearing is said to take place between October 17th and 31st.
The opening of criminal proceedings had already been ordered by the Spanish judiciary in 2017. It is about a lawsuit by the Brazilian investment fund DIS in connection with Neymar’s move to Barcelona in the summer of 2013.
DIS held a 40 percent stake in the player and feels cheated. The fund claims it only received 40 percent of the “official” transfer fee of 17.1 million euros. According to the investigation, at least 83 million should have been paid for the transfer.
